My buddy is a Licensed Massage Therapist at Massage Envy and got me hooked up with a 90 minute massage on Thursday morning (9/15/11). We then went and got a bite to eat and then it was time for me to head out. I got the bike loaded up and rode from Peoria, AZ to Las Vegas. I arrived just...

Finally in Phoenix. I was craving an In-n-Out 4x4 and some ice cold beer.

Sunday morning (9/11/11) I woke up, loaded up my bike, said my goodbyes and headed back towards New Mexico. I retraced my ride past Santa Rosa but instead of heading to Santa Fe, I rode to Albuquerque. The first 160 miles to Ft. Sumner was flat and boring, but the rest of the ride through New...

I still have more to report and more pictures to follow. I'll try to get some more up tomorrow.

On a couple of the long slab runs I did sit on it. A lot of the time I used a bungee to hold it in place as a backrest.

Yes you did and I did have my Camleback with me. In my first pic when I was leaving, you can see it strapped to the top back of my bike. It was an absolute neccesity. I've got the Gold Crown Member thing and actually earned a couple free nights after this trip. I believe it is Cannon AFB...

Upon waking up and having some breakfast, I rode into Texas and headed towards Littlefield to meet up with my buddy Shaun who rode up on his Harley from Lubbock to meet me for the last bit of the ride in. We rode back into Lubbock (104 miles) and to his house, where I finally had some cold beer...

I don’t know exactly when I crossed into Colorado as I never saw a sign and never hit any hills. But about an hour after leaving Monticello, I was all of a sudden in Cortez, CO. I decided to stop at the Best Western and get a room. I checked in at 10:45pm local time and luckily the Jacuzzi...

Just across the border into Idaho, I stopped to fuel up in Fruitland, ID. While fueling up, the nausea came back. I bought a Gatorade and started sipping it. That’s when a portion of my breakfast decided to come back up. Afterwards I felt a bit better, so I got back on the road. The...

My 4,408.7 mile journey, hitting 10 different states began on 9/3/11. I worked dayshift from 6:25am until 2:25pm. Once I got off work, I raced home to load the FZ6 and get out of town. It was hot, humid and kind of nasty due to a very large cloud of smoke coming out of the Columbia River...

I have completed my trip. I was gone for 16 days and logged 4,408.7 miles in 10 states. I just got done transferring my pictures to my computer and now need to resize them. Once I have a free moment to take care of that, I'll detail my trip to include the good the bad and the ugly. It'll...

Well, barring anything else coming up, my trip is back on and merely delayed until next weekend. Looking at the bright side, it allows time for my new Joe Rocket Phoenix 3.0 pants to arrive. It looks like I won't be coming back through Valencia, so I'll probably cut straight over to the coast...

I'm bringing both my Cee Bailey screen and my stock one for that reason. I want to be able to switch for airflow when needed.
